MADISON, Jan. 5-Tne winter term of Han
over College opened to-day, with good attend
ance Of students, and everybody encouraged by
late requests 10 the institution. The opening
exercises were held in Donnell Chapel, the Gus
tomary lecture being delivered by Mr.. NJ c.
CARRIER editor Of the Madison Courier. Mr..
CARRIER spoke upon the life of ST. John, the
Evangelist. He was the first disciple, and the
last. the youngest apostle, and lived to be the
oldest. surviving not only his twelve associates,
but twelve coniemporaneons Roman emperors.
His ministry after the execution OF Peter and
Paul, covered longer neriod Than the time
actively occupied by the apostle of the Gentiles
in his arduous labors In view of the length OF
Johns service, his writings, his part in the or
ganiZation of the primitive church, the disciples
he gathered about him. and the emphasis with
which he taught the divinity of Christ, it was a
nice question to decide whether his influence
was not as great Pauls, to whom the Protest
ant world gives the precedence, or of Peters, to
whom the Roman Church ascrites the suprem-
acy.
M. CARRIERS address was received with marked
favor. and was considered an unusually able and
shouehtful production. This gentleman. by the
Way. has made fine reputation as a speaker on
various subjects of late, having taken an active
part in religions conventions, and in recent po-
ltica campaigns, his closing effort of the cam
paign being considered one of the best delivered
from a Republican stand point in Jefferson
county. Among the invitations to speak in the
future Is one To deliver the opening address at
the next meeting Of the Southern Indiana
Teachers Association.
